In response to Emperor Zhu Jingxuan's inquiry, the master of the voice in the dark pondered for a moment, and then slowly replied: "Your Majesty, if we only look at cultivation, I believe that the cultivation level of the chief internal officer is the highest, and the cultivation level of the imperial chief is also the highest. OK, the only ones left are the chief eunuch on duty and the chief and deputy guards in charge of the hall and the palace gates!"
"The chief eunuch on duty?" When Zhu Jingxuan heard that one of the names mentioned by this person was a eunuch he was familiar with, he couldn't help showing a look of astonishment, "You said, but the man outside the door Bit?"
"It's him!" The man in the dark confirmed.
Thinking about what I have seen in the past, the face of the great eunuch on duty was full of humility, and even when facing Er Shao Huang, he showed a cautious and flattering attitude. It is really unimaginable that this person is still... One of the few masters in the palace!
Compared with others, Zhu Jingxuan was naturally more willing to let the eunuch on duty, whom he was familiar with, serve as the factory official of the East Factory.
Fortunately, the eunuch on duty is right outside the door, so he can be called in directly for questioning.
After summoning the eunuch on duty outside the door into the palace, Zhu Jingxuan repeated what he had said to the man in the dark about establishing the Dongchang, and asked this person if he intended to become the owner of the Dongchang. .
In response to Zhu Jingxuan's inquiry, the eunuch on duty immediately knelt on the ground and said that everything was decided by Zhu Jingxuan, the emperor.
Later, Zhu Jingxuan gave this person some detailed instructions for establishing Dongchang, and then gave him a vague reminder to "pay attention" to Huang Ershao.
The eunuch on duty responded to all requests one by one.

As time passed, the day soon came when Jiang Xinyao, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, held a poetry meeting at the Duke Protector's Mansion.
Protector's Mansion, Qunfang Pavilion.
Qunfang Pavilion is located in the center of the backyard of the Protector's Mansion. The tip of the pavilion is dark black, and the pillars are a slightly deeper maroon. In the pavilion, there are simple and plain gray-white stone tables and chairs. The overall look is slightly... It is simple, but surrounded by green trees, gurgling water, and dancing bees and butterflies, it forms a beautiful picture.
At this time, in this pavilion, the orioles and swallows who entered the Qunfang Pavilion holding invitation cards were gathering together in twos and threes to discuss the gossip of the night before yesterday.
"By the way, are the rumors true? I had something to do that day and didn't come to the appointment. I heard that something big happened at the flower viewing party!"
"I know! I know! I was at the scene at the time and saw with my own eyes that Jiang Xinyao ran out of the side room on the right, and behind her was the Second Young Master Huang who was playing with her!"
"Oh my god! Is the rumor true? I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect... However, looking at her self-admiration in the past, I thought her vision could be so high, but I didn't expect that a Second Young Master Huang can get rid of him!"
"No way! Who would have thought that the most famous beauty in the capital would fall in love with the hated Second Young Master Huang. His vision...is really not that good!"
"It's just that such a big thing happened the night before. Jiang Xinyao posted a message today to invite us... What exactly does she want to do by inviting us here at this time?"
"What can she do? She just wants us to lure her with benefits, move her with emotion, reason with her, and threaten her, so that we can help her testify that she did not have an affair with Er Shao Huang that night!"
…………
"That's right!" While many women in Qunfang Pavilion were having a heated discussion, suddenly, a slightly weak voice came from outside the pavilion, "I invite you here today because I want you to give me a testimony. The night before yesterday, I did not have an affair with Er Shao Huang, or in other words, it was not me and Er Shao Huang who came out of that side house the night before yesterday!"
"Oh? You said you weren't, so you weren't? Where's the evidence? Bring out the evidence first!" A woman in the crowd couldn't help but snorted with some mockery.
Jiang Xinyao, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, turned her eyes and saw a handsome and heroic woman.
This woman is Wu Ying, the daughter of Wu Jian, the commander of the "Longjing Guard".
The Longjing Guards were a powerful army loyal to the royal family, guarding the imperial city, and stationed in the capital. They were also one of the few armies that my grandfather could not interfere with...or dare not intervene openly.
As for Wu Ying, the daughter of the Commander-in-Chief of Longjing Wei, she and Jiang Xinyao have not dealt with each other very much since she was a child. In addition to the fact that their fathers did not deal with each other very much, the most important reason is because Wu Ying feels that she, Jiang Xinyao, is a protector. The Duke's legitimate daughter, and the only legitimate daughter at that, was too delicate, and she didn't have the heroic spirit of a military general at all. It was simply embarrassing for her to be called "the tiger girl of a general".
Therefore, the relationship between the two has not been very good.
As Jiang Xinyao expected, Wu Ying started to find trouble.
However, Wu Ying's trouble-making was what she had expected.
In other words, Jiang Xinyao invited this Wu Ying today just to make her find trouble. Otherwise, today's self-proving innocence meeting, without this person's criticism, would have been based on the people in the pavilion who are accustomed to doing one thing before others and another behind others. A woman who cheats doesn’t have much credibility. There may be some rumors spread afterwards, and if those rumors fall into the ears of people who don’t know the truth, they may think that she is relying on the power of the Protectorate to force them to do this. Testify yourself!
Therefore, Jiang Xinyao not only ignored Wu Ying's mocking snort, she was even very happy in her heart.
"Of course the evidence has to be brought out, but before I bring it out for you to see, I think you might as well try it first. A pot of fairy wine that my biological mother left for me before she passed away. ,'Beauty'!" Jiang Xinyao sighed with a sad look on her face, as if thinking of her deceased mother, "My mother once told me before she was alive that good things should be shared with close friends, Xinyao Ask yourself, all of you here, even if you have some small conflicts or conflicts with me in the past, can still be regarded as my best friends. After all, stumbling between friends is inevitable, so today, I want to Fulfill my mother’s last wish and taste this pot of immortal wine with you all!”
Hearing Jiang Xinyao's words, the women present were slightly startled at first, and then their eyes brightened.
Immortal wine and beauty can be said to be the holy products in the hearts of all women in the world. Their attraction to women is no less attractive than the top talents and treasures.
Simply because, just one glass of beauty wine can keep a woman's appearance and youthful forever.
